ReadDirectoryChangesW not found

[CraigNZ]

I am trying to add a new package containing the unit Cromis.DirectoryWatch.  When I compile the package I get an error showing the windows ReadDirectoryChangesW procedure is not found.  I have Windows in the Uses clause.  Is this api call available in Lazarus?

Or, is there an already available package for monitoring changes in a directory?

1. it seems not to be there, please file a bug.
2. it is in the alternative Jedi windows units that come with FPC, unit jwawinbase, but these are less checked for 64-bit.

I am using Lazarus version 2.0.0.  Do you think it might be in an earlier version?  Or, is there an easy way to add the unit jwawinbase to a Laz32 package?

[marcov]

That unit should be there. It has been in lazarus and fpc installs since the 2005-2007 timeframe
